Oregano Oil for Strep Throat

I agree with Jason's post below from 2008, Oregano oil (food safe type) is the best and amazing cure for Strep throat and other things. I also used crushed garlic with raw honey added after the freshly crushed garlic sat for 10 minutes or so. I had a third positive test for Strep after 2 rounds of antibiotics failed. I finally cured my strep in two days using oregano oil and garlic.

I just did the oregano oil, make sure the one you take is food grade. I know it's been years since your comment, but if you have the situation come up again (heaven forbid), but still... I got an organic oregano oil, food grade, not in essential oil form for making body salves. I can't say to others whether or not to use antibiotics, but I did this and them lemon juice, acv, and honey mix and, though, I had rheumatic fever type symptoms, they were very mild and I'm told this is a strong strain. To note, when typing this, if someone has other symptoms or not, it's good to check for COVID as this is how the current strain is acting. I was negative, thank God, so just strep. I also had to do a lot of resting. I was told the drs said this strain of strep doesn't respond to antibiotics so I hope this helps you and others to feel more confident in the natural approach. I didn't notice any heart valve type symptoms and I react so badly to antibiotics, I prefer this approach. Drinking a lot of water to support my kidneys. Good luck, God bless. :)

My son had a sore throat for 3 days and was feeling so terrible I thought he might have mono. I brought him to the Dr. who did a throat culture that confirmed strep throat. I accepted the antibiotic prescription she gave us but didn't want to have it filled until I checked Earth Clinic. I have been a loyal reader for years and always recommend it to anyone who is sick. Anyway, since my son balks at taking the apple cider vinegar I decided to give oil of oregano a try before giving in to antibiotics. My kids have never had antibiotics, I have tried to steer clear of them so as to allow them to build a good immune system. I ended up buying oregano spirits, which is a tincture in alcohol, by mistake but it worked just fine. Within hours of his first dose there was a noticeable improvement and by the next day he was back to his old self. I gave him 10 drops in a glass of water every 6 hours for a day (I followed the dosing on the bottle). It worked like a charm.

Also, I read the post about using it on a cold sore and tried it when I felt one coming on my lip. I have tried Acetone, ACV, L- Arganine, and over the counter solutions but never had one stop right in its tracks like it did when I put the tiniest little bit on. Amazing! I will never be without a bottle of this in the house. Just had to share this with others as I was completely impressed!

I had strep throat last week and it was getting pretty bad with the pain. I tried gargling with ACV, drinking it with water, honey, cayenne pepper, etc. I even tried Amoxicillin from the doctor. Nothing helped me...until I tried Oil of Oregano. On Wednesday night, I took a couple doses and by Thursday morning, the pain was gone. Now, a week later, the strep is totally cleared. For me, this was the cure for my Strep. Oil of Oregano is great!

I don't know if you consider this a natural remedy or not, but oil of oregano has stopped strep-like sore throats very quickly for me and my wife. If it appears to be full-blown strep, I soak a cotton swab in oil of oregano and dab it directly on the inflamed area. If it's milder I can often place about 6 drops under my tongue and hold them until the mouth fills with saliva. I then gargle a bit to coat the back of the throat and swallow. The oil has a powerful burning taste but it has come through for us many times.
